What our customers say...

Little, Brown & Company, London - first edition ISBN:0316851523, 1999. Hardcover, 5¼" x 8", with dust jacket. Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with usual stamps, stickers, barcode etc. VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD price-clipped dust jacket. Everything at Greenwich springs from Henry VIII's original obsession with the place - the great houses around Greenwich Park, its naval connections, the Royal Observatory, the fixing of the Longitude. This book explains how it all fits together, with some fascinating asides.
